Management Science & Engineering
Management Science and Engineering spans engineering, business and public policy, including areas such as data modeling, behavioral science, finance, entrepreneurship, risk, operations and decision-making.
Collectively, the faculty have deep expertise in two major disciplines: quantitative modeling (and related algorithms) and the behavioral sciences. Our dual focus is unique among our peer departments and creates a platform for building innovative knowledge, tools and techniques useful to firms, non-profit organizations and government.
